NOTES.
The large flexible leghorns are revived
for shade hats.
Lit e SHRED pokes for little girls are
/ exceedingly becoming.
Pulled sleeves are stylish for muslins
and all very thin fabrics.
Oatmeal cloth is an effective and cheap
material for the summer dresses of girls.
Square, tab-lIke sGsheS are the only
/ drapery used over many dresses for mis-
ses and young ladies.
Ginghams are made up very stylishly
with plain overdress with a petticoat of
! the corded striped ginghams.
| The newest summer gloves are in dark
/ shades of bronze green stitched with
/ pale green, and old pink stitched with
white.
! A novelty in bonnets consists of crowns
/ formed of plated ribbon, or ribbons in
clustered stripes with fancy edges.
1 A pretty hat is turban shape of brown
str6 7G with white crepe brim, and about
! the crepe q small coronet of primroses
and an aigrette of white lilacs.
TuCks appear IN the skirts of every kind
of dress, whether it be silk, lace, muslin
or wool. They give substance TO the
underskirt and allow the over-drapery to
fall in more graceful lines.
Pretty and inexpensive wedding dresses
are of white crepe de chine. These are
ivory white and made up over satin,
trimmed with fringes of orange blossoms
aud manybows and loops of wide ivory
satin ribbon.
Coats are either single or double
breasted, and as g rule of different color
from the dress-for instance, g brown
coat for q blue or green dress, or black
and white checks are also often used.
French muslin caps with q high ruche
III front, or the more quaint little Dutch
caps in three pieces, curving back from
the front, made of embroidered muslin
over silk, are worn by babies six months
TO year old.
BasQues are cut very much longer upon
the hips than formerly, and Partisan
bodies have an extremely long, sharp
point in front, and the edges are finished
with G double cord. When they are
made in this way they hook instead of
buttoniDg up the front, as the point is too
sharp to admit of button holes.
There was shown in New York win
dow last week 8 wide white Leghorn
trimmed with huge bows of gold satin
ribbon three inches wide. The loops
Were half foot high, and the whole effect
was much like the hats worn in 1880.
They may De revived to wear with the
mutton-leg sleeves now so fashionable.
New designs in bandkerchiefs are lovely
because SO eXquisltely fire and delicate.
One has border consisting of seven
woven lines in the finest hemstitch, alter
mating with regular rows of worked dots.
Another has the little, star-like "pipie"
to form @ narrow border in needle-work,
beyond which Is an equally narrow edging
of fine, real vslencienneS.
Stylish travelling dresses are of check
in neutral colors; shades of brown or
dark gray, with skirt straight at the back,
short dTaDery and habit bodice. A travel
ing ulster is fitted at the back, has q hood
and is Topped up on one side, or may be
lowered as preferred. The ulster may be
of checked silk, thin summer wool, or
linen, but the hood should be lined with
soft silk in solid color.
Gray hair is usually dressed with a
good deal of elaborateness. The three
puffs on the side are still much liked tor
slender faces and for women who have
pretty heads and the hair still abundant,
it is parted, waved from the forehead,
and wound IN braided coil on the back
of the head not too far down on the nape
of the neck. The French twist and four
loops on top of the head, held in place by
shell tuCking combs, is extremely becom-
ing to some.
